I think he'd been smarter, since the tree was already mostly hollow, to just cut a door and live in the tree.

He's going to slow down traffic doing that. What are they supposed to swing from, to get places?

The hut he builds will just be burned down by the next milita gang that rolls through.

It's the white mans fault for inventing the engine, then the chainsaw, then allowing this fuckwad to get his hands on one.
